Exclamation Houston Boys: Good Luck!!!

Alrighty, I know of a few guys (sierracrew, 01thunder and a few others that I cannot remember.) that are gonna be really close to the whole hurricane bit. They have predicted wind to be at around 100mph at my house in Tomball which is a little NW of Houston. I just wanted to say if yall need any kind of help let me know. We are boarding up windows and I even had to dig our ditch a little deaper today to accomidate for all of the rain. This is gonna be huge. I hope everybody who is facing this gets through it and all of their belongings are safe and in good condition (ie. Your trucks). I'll keep yall in my prayers. Another thing, If you want to check in after the storm and let everybody know your status please do so. Good luck and be safe!

...watchin the weather channel right now and it doesn't look good, we know galveston and houston might get hit pretty hard but at least people are taking the necessary precautions by evacuating...this has been a strange year as far as weather patterns are concerned, what the hell is going on??...i know we need a little rain but this is too much...I'm with FarmerBeau, let us know if you guys are ok...good luck and be safe!!!

Its winding down and traffic sux. It took 30 minutes to get home from being 4 miles away. My dad was about 20 miles away (In willowbrook) and it took him 4.5 hours to get home. NOT fun. People are breaking down everywhere near the house. This freakin sucks!

Godspeed gentlemen. Don't be too proud to stay if it gets too hot. You and your families lives are too important.
